    It kinda was a sports thing lol

    idk if you actually looked up it’s origins, but for anyone curious there was a NASCAR winner “Brandon” I forgot his last name, but he was being interviewed after the race and everyone in the background was shouting “fuck Joe Biden” (because they’re sheep, wtf does Biden have to do with anything in that moment?) so the interviewer possibly trying to cover for the network since you can’t exactly go cursing on there says (paraphrasing) “they must be saying let’s go Brandon!”

    Naturally MAGA morons took that as “ThE mAiNsTrEaM mEdIa iS cEnSoRiNg Us! ThEy’Re CoVeRiNg FoR BiDeN! FaKe NeWs!” So now let’s go Brandon means fuck Joe Biden and also hints to msm manipulation.

    It’s also a perfect example of how they NEED to be part of a tribe. That phrase includes you in the tribe if you use it with others that “know.”
